We study lightweight, elastic metamaterials consisting of tensegrity-inspired prisms, which present wide, low-frequency band gaps. For their realization, we alternate tensegrity elements with solid discs in periodic arrangements that we…

A homogeneous negative permeability sphere can support magnetic localized surface plasmons (MLSPs). Generally, negative permeability materials are metamaterial (MM) structures exhibiting very deep subwavelength spatial scales, whose effects…

We theoretically demonstrated and experimentally verified high-order radial spoof localized surface plasmon resonances supported by textured metal particles. Through an effective medium theory and exact numerical simulations, we show the…

Hourglass dispersion is generally believed to be solely protected by nonsymmorphic symmetries, because these symmetries can introduce high-dimensional projective representations. Here, based on symmetry arguments, we propose that the…

High-harmonic generation (HHG) in solids has rapidly emerged as a promising platform for creating compact attosecond sources and probing ultrafast electron dynamics. Resonant metasurfaces are essential for enhancement of the otherwise small…

We study properties of a scalar quantum field theory on two-dimensional noncommutative space-times. Contrary to the common belief that noncommutativity of space-time would be a key to remove the ultraviolet divergences, we show that field…
